    Lived in Walnut Hill for a long time. We have a creek behind our house and it always has atleast a little water flowing. It’s completely dry for the first time ever.After a little rain this week I thought it would be flowing normally again. It’s still completely dry. It must be bad.

    Yet, you still have people burning trash and yard debris in there back yard. On floating amber is all it takes now and you got a wildfire. Just keep in mind if your burning trash pile starts one of those wildfires/ brush fires you can be held liable for any property damage. If anyone loses a life you can be held criminally. So think again before you decide to burn stuff on your property.
